I also helped with props that required additional shader features. I created several glass props and helped to set up some of the animated "smart glass" around the level, including the glass for the tablet in the screenshot and some signs and scales that had animated screens. Finally, I also painted vertex wind animation for all of the trees and awnings in this level. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429377762477-944OE2WU141JJ9COFE7U/image-asset.png CODAW Screenshots - PS4/XB1/PC Greece When I first started at high moon, I helped the prop team import their props through the engine.

This level was somewhat easy as the second half of "training" runs you through the first section of the level, but getting the content to work with multiple light sets was a unique challenge. In this particular scene the foliage was a challenge due to its complexity and it needed to be recreated almost from scratch for PS3 to reduce the overdraw. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429379242811-2DO4DS93UP06BF9GB0MJ/176.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 - Atlas Another picture from Atlas, this is the opening of the cabin fight. some performance challenges were introduced by the heavy foliage, many enemies, and long draw distances outside, but ultimately the level shipped running in top shape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429379211056-B47HFHHG9GRWPERJFQDN/cod_burger_town.0.0.jpg CODAW Screenshots - PS4/XB1/PC Zombie DLC BurgerTown During this phase of the DLC, a coworker and I were tasked with setting up and maintaining the PVS portal system for burgertown. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429380459362-80YOMTH3HYCI8A0VVNIF/Outbreak_Environment_AW.jpg CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Zombie DLC Outbreak a coworker and I were tasked with maintaining PVS portal system and fixing art bugs for ps3 and xbox 360 version. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429380882139-XL892MH2DZ1AC8OBWK4K/Climate_gameplay_AW.jpg CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 MP DLC Climate Tasked with memory reduction, frame rate performance, and all visual bugs for this DLC map https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429381202916-OT243K62HCQQHVN6GM7W/DEVX395A-image195.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Recovery This picture was of particular interest because the floor hologram was originally a scaled down model of the vista mountains. This was a very expensive model for performance, so I created a new, cheaper hologram mountain effect to replace the old hologram model. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429381470275-5T5E3KL5EURIX2EQ2EJL/DEVX395A-image197.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Recovery Tasked with visual bugs performance, and memory optimization.

The level was broken into three sections, a fly in to an underwater breach, a missile silo, and finally the apartment of Kevin Spacey's character, Irons, which though short was difficult due to the massive city view he has. This picture is from the missile silo portion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429382895122-A9HOUHE92DUQ9SDTYKHK/DEVX395A-image191.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Terminus Another shot of the silo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429381911022-FA4OL3K360BWSED2YWFE/DEVX395A-image190.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Terminus Underwater section of the level https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429381944128-89YUSLFLSR3H21NS9UJV/DEVX395A-image188.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Terminus A heated battle during the fly in portion of the finale. I had to do a lot of work on performance due to long draw distances and big amount of AI. I also spent time on the drone helicopters and buildings as the level looked very bland on ps3 originally, however I think it came out very well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429382865015-5VXLEUA6OBRJOB0R9S3I/DEVX395A-image189.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Terminus Another shot of the level fly-in https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429382297847-P69CB0LMAO7LEYMKLD7G/DEVX395A-image178.png CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 DLC Core Tasked with art and PVS fixes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429382363548-HF4GHXBZWY550DTX7O5W/maxres.jpg CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 Riot https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1429380183888-U5QEM1P8YQE066LEOEYH/2014-11-02_00016.jpg CODAW Screenshots - PS3/X360 - Atlas Another scene from atlas (This picture is actually from the next gen version). current gen technology did not support tessellation, so we had to re-rig a newly modeled tube to match this effect.. http://www.nestart.net/portfolio daily 1.0 2015-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54867dcce4b0c06cb45df0e4/1434861667831-CCOU1IIAU3SUKQZL1NVG/image-asset.jpeg Home - Modular Lattice Creature Enemy for UE4 project modeled, rigged, and set up actor for lattice creature game.
